Actually, the place I would most like to visit would be Tuna.

Re: Elven Places

Mirkwood doesn't seem to be an inviting place to visit... I think I would visit Lothlorien, because from what the books say, it sounds like a pretty cool place.

Re: Elven Places

I think Mirkwood would be the coolest place. There would be so many creatures and hidden places all over the place. It would be so fun to go on adventures deep in the forest.

I'd like to go over the sea... that'd be really cool...


BTW, I always thought that 'Over the sea' was a metaphor for death... anyone agree with me?

I think it is, actually...

Hmmm...I'd most want to visit...Lothlorien, because it's beautiful and in the woods (like Mirkwood), but without the dangers of Mirkwood. And, it would be peaceful and quiet and beautiful...*sigh*...

I'd visit Lothlorien also, it seemed to be the perfect place for all weary souls and people under a lot of stress (ha, like me).
Tom Bombadil's place is also good with all it's solemnity, and surreality if i'm right.

Ow, i noticed that Veasorel wrote Riverdale instead of Rivendell.
Though i think it would be fun eating pizza with Jughead.

I would definitely go to Lothlorien because it just seems so perfect a place to go. As long as there were still Elves there; you can't have Lothlorien without Elves.

I think I'd want to go to Fangorn! Ents are cool! I wish I could take everything slow like them! You could count Fangorn right! I mean I swear the book TTT talks about elves once living there a long time ago talking to the Ents! But out of the choices up top...I guess I'll be like everyone else and say Lothlorien because the elves there are WIERD! I mean who thinks Galadriel is a little WIERD! Really!

Well, most of the elven-places are not listed here.

I would probably like to visit Tól Eressea, the Lonely Isle sounds like a great place. Lóthlorien would also be great, and Rivendell, but Mirkwood isnt' very nice place.

Actually I would also like to visit Gondolin, too. Doriath, before the sun rose, and Nan Elmoth in night could also be great.

But I think it would be Tól Eressea. There are far too many elven-places what I would like to see.

I think I would enjoy Mithlond the most. The Grey Havens would be such a cool place to live. You would get to see all the elves after they leave. Plus, after the end of the third age, it is the only place that still possesses one of the twenty rings of power.

I'm all over Rivendell. Elrond is there, Narsil is there, they're stocked up on food and drinks (skip the lembas and pass the CHOW!) and it's supposedly the best place to crash when you've been mortally wounded!
